Ahh... spanking! Who doesn't love spanking? I loved the first book in the series, and was astonished that Rachel Kramer Bussel could top "Naughty Spanking Stories from A to Z, Volume 1."

naughty spanking a-z v2 hits the spot.......2007-03-08
Is it possible? Can it be that Naughty Spanking V2 be hotter than V1? You bet your sore red spanked butt it is.
After reading such stories like Chippendale Library Chair I feel as though I need to go and find one to use on my next spanking partner. Then there is After Hours...sizzling made me want to become a voyuer something I've never tried before BUT now I feel as though I must!
There is not one story that will not make your butt or hand envious because you are not a participant. I guarantee Naughty Spanking Stories A-Z V2 will NOT DISAPPOINT.

This is their story.
Customer Reviews:
Cute!.......2007-05-16
I thought the book was really cute. I guess it is geared for single moms...b/c there was no dad included??
Just OK.......2007-04-07
Not one our favorite China adoption stories, it is ok but does not really keep my daughter's attention and I find it a little mediocre too.
wonderful.......2007-03-09
I love this book! I purchased it as a gift for a 3 year old adopted from China when she was 10 months old and her single mother. She is at the age when she is asking questions about family and it's important for her to see herself represented in media. The only part i didn't like was that the mother 'felt empty' even though she had a nice home, a dog, etc and that's why she adopted. That idea is a little tricky for a youngster who needs to not feel they are there to take care of their parent. The rest of the messege of the book is quite wonderful and worth it.
Perfect.......2006-03-21
I am getting ready to adopt from China in the next year and wanted to create a library for my child. I am a single woman and this book is perfect. It tells a beautiful story and is about a single woman adopting from China. I love it and so do all of my friends.
International Families and Adoptions.......2006-03-16
This story begins with a red baby blanket in a store inspiring a single woman to consider the adoption of a child. Through the story the blanket brings comfort to the young girl as she begins her life outside of the adoption center in China. As the bond between the mother and child develop over the span of years, the red blanket continues to convey the initial, unconditional love shared by her adoptive mother. The colors used in the oil paintings convey warmth and emotion throughout the story with crisp detail. As cross-country adoptions become more common and family dynamics change, this story maintains a current day appeal. Within the constraints of a picture book, this story conveys the struggles and frustrations experienced transitioning a baby from an orphanage to a new family. While particularly appropriate for the topic of adoption, children of all backgrounds can appreciate the young girl's attachment to her blanket. This book would be a wonderful addition to a study on families.
Book Description
Matilda Weimar flees her lecherous and incestuous uncle and seeks refuge in the ancient Castle of Wolfenbach. Among the castle's abandoned chambers, Matilda will discover the horrifying mystery of the missing Countess of Wolfenbach. But when her uncle tracks her down, can she escape his despicable intentions?
One of the seven "horrid novels" named in Jane Austen's Northanger Abbey, The Castle of Wolfenbach is perhaps the most important of the early Gothic novels, predating both The Mysteries of Udolpho and The Monk.
This edition reprints the complete text of the 1793 edition and includes a new introduction and notes by Diane Long Hoeveler, one of the foremost modern scholars of Gothic literature and feminism.

Pre-Northanger Gothic Travails.......2007-03-30
A long-forgotten Gothic tale by a writer who seems to have amused Jane Austen. The young heroine, who's pluckier than you might expect, spends her time exploring (seemingly) haunted castles and fleeing from an incestuously motivated uncle. At first the prose seems ridiculously stilted - no writing teacher seems ever to have told the author to "show, not tell" - and the high ideals and sentimentality of the nobler characters, who burst into tears on every other page, is a bit of a stretch. But there's something refreshing about reading a work by someone who believed strongly in good and evil, and in the possibility of redemption and forgiveness for even the most blackened and depraved of sinners. If you like the period, and you can stomach melodrama, it's not a bad read. The introduction gives some insights into the changing attitudes toward marriage that fuel the story's themes. Nicely produced by Valancourt Press (long may they prosper!).
Book Description
Is it any wonder that the world’s number-one writers of erotic fiction have found a home in the world’s number-one magazine of erotic entertainment? Now, from the pages of Penthouse, come thirty-six torrid tales that give new meaning to the words “bedtime stories.” From the lingerie dressing room that’s all about stripping down to the babysitter who picks up a little extra something from the lady of the house, from the woman who holds an entire room in thrall with a single stick of peppermint candy to the indecent encounter between strangers on a London double-decker bus, these are stories that will ignite your imagination and put the sizzle back . . . Between the Sheets.

Kirsten T. Saxton is the bomb.......2000-09-13
This book is so informative, and yet at the same time entertaining. I am a passionate woman, so the title caught my eye. As I read though, I discovered just what kind of woman Eliza Haywood is and how that personality shines through in her writing. Thank God someone like Kirsten T. Saxton is around to share her insightful thoughts with the world. I am anxiously awaiting the next book!

Deadly Promise: A Novel of Suspense
ASIN: 0881849464 |
Book Description
This collection of early works by Eliza Haywood includes the well-known novella Fantomina (1725) along with three other short, highly engaging Haywood works: The Tea-Table (1725), Reflections on the Various Effects of Love (1726), and Love-Letters on All Occasions (1730). In these writings, Haywood arouses the vicarious experience of erotic love while exploring the ethical and social issues evoked by sexual passion.
This Broadview edition includes an introduction that focuses on Haywood's life and career and on the status of prose fiction in the early eighteenth century. Also included are appendices of contextual materials from the period comprising writings by Haywood on female conduct, eighteenth-century pornography (from Venus in the Cloister), and a source text (Nahum Tate's A Present for the Ladies).
Customer Reviews:
Eliza Haywood, author.......2007-01-19
Loved her two novesl; Miss Betsy Thoughtless and Love in Excess. I wanted more of her works.
This book of her shorter works is put together very well. She must have been an amazing woman.
An excellent teaching text!.......2004-09-29
This edition of Eliza Haywood's novels is excellent for teaching--or simply pleasure reading! The texts are clearly and helpfully annotated with definitions of older words. The editors' introduction is invaluable as a guide to the life and work of this neglected eighteenth-century writer. The title story alone is worth the price of the book. This edition is a worthy companion to Christine Blouch's edition of Haywood's novel Betsy Thoughtless, published in the same series.
Perhaps after a taste of these ribald tales readers will investigate Haywood's lesser-known works, such as the Female Spectator, published in an excellent edition by Oxford University Press. They certainly merit further study and appreciation.
Book Description
Eliza Haywood (1693-1756) was on of the most successful writers of her time; indeed, the two most popular English novels in the early eighteenth-century were Robinson Crusoe and Haywood's first novel, Love in Excess. As this edition enables modern readers to discover, its enormous success is easy to understand. Love in Excess is a well crafted novel in which the claims of love and ambition are pursued through multiple storylines until the heroine engineers a melodramatic conclusion.
Haywood's frankness about female sexuality may explain the later neglect of Love in Excess. (In contrast, her accomplished domestic novel, The History of Miss Betsy Thoughtless, has remained available.) Love in Excess and its reception provide a lively and valuable record of the challenge that female desire posed to social decorum.
For the second Broadview edition, the appendix of eighteenth-century responses to Haywood has been considerably expanded.
Customer Reviews:
Could have been trashier.......2005-10-14
It seems everyone always wants to pinpoint the "first novel." It's not Pamela, it's Love in Excess. It's Love in Excess, it's Gulliver's Travels. It's not Gulliver's Travel's, it's Oroonoko.
Actually, the first novel is probably Gargantua and Pantagruel by Rabelais. Or Don Quixote. Either way, it's not in English. And when it comes down to it, it doesn't really matter. Love in Excess (and the others around it) should be judged on its own merit, not in chronological/"novelistic" relation to other supposed "first novels."
So, judged on its own merit, is Love in Excess any good?
Well, first of all, it's highly theatrical, in multiple senses of the word. Eliza Haywood was a successful actress and the novel is dedicated to a big former stage star of the day. (It'd be like a book being dedicated to Julia Roberts today.) The novel is composed in three highly-differentiable parts - they seem like they could be three acts in a play. The characters are often easily placed into types - one could imagine one person playing three of characters of the same type (e.g., the deceitful woman) that each appear in a separate part/act.
Love in Excess is, fundamentally, about exactly that - what happens when too much "love" is shooting around everywhere. Love, lust - whatever. Haywood delves deeply into what love is, and it's a very different notion than what we have.
Probably few people today read Love in Excess for its plot, but the story is worth it - convoluted, ridiculous, at points hilarious, full of outrageous coincidences, trashy, and by the standards of the day surely damn near pornographic. The syntax takes a little getting used to, but the book flows well as it goes on.
The main fault of Love in Excess to the modern reader, though, is that it's not saucy *enough.* Compared with romance novels (that phrase was once oxymoronic, but I think it makes sense even in relation to Love in Excess) today, you're left with a bit of the "That's it?" feeling.
(Still, by the standards of the day...)
The first novelist & very much misunderstood.......2003-11-06
It's a shame that Richardson gets credit for being the first novelist--Haywood wrote "Love in Excess" twenty years prior to "Pamela"!!! And frankly, I think "Love in Excess" is not only a much better novel in terms of its craft and general use of language, it is also much more entertaining--which was the aim of many early novels anyway.
"Love in Excess" is a bawdy, surprisingly complex romp. What you have, I think, are morally ambiguous characters; some are just flat-out amoral; and the fun and playful thing about EH is that she treats her characters as consistent, moral creatures, yet they are far from it. Indeed, for those that read EH as simply a romance writer, they're missing out on a wealth of sarcasm, satire, and humor. EH knew she was creating despicable people; she wanted to point out the absurdities of courtly love; and by writing in a tone that is seemingly serious, she is also testing her audience. Even though this was the first novel, Haywood understood how to write both to the masses and to her peers. In other words, "Love in Excess" is multi-functional and sets a standard for those like Richardson to follow--who, hypocritically, I'd imagine, would deny her influence and dismiss her talents because of her gender. It's wild that Haywood is hardly known: she's a master writer, a brilliant social commentator, and in possession of a tremendous analytical mind. I admire her very much.
Drivel in Excess.......2000-05-21
I purchased this book under the misapprehension that it might be similar to Jane Austen's work. Unfortunately, I was EXCESSIVELY mistaken! There was no depth of character or maturity found within this book. The sentence structure was often incomplete making it almost impossible to understand what the author was trying to express. The Characters had no soul. They were mindless caricatures fulfilling wanton lusts and desire without reason. Who but a madwoman would swoon at the sight of her intended conquest on the arm of another woman-then pull her own hair out and tear at her own face. You may enjoy such as this,but I do not! This one needs to be filed under "T" for Trashola!
Not for Austen fans necessarily, but a good read.......2000-05-07
Austen fans would be advised to read Haywood's History of Miss Betsy Thoughtless, not Love in Excess, which is a much earlier "novel" following the fortunes of a male protagonist through a series of increasingly bizarre romantic twists and tangles. It's a fast read and quite enjoyable, but be prepared for some serious nuttiness.
One of the Best Novels of the 18th (or any) century.......1999-03-11
If you like Jane Austen, you'll really like Love In Excess. It is both a humorous and exciting tale of loves lost, gained, regained, and unconsummated. The diversity of characters really makes this book intriguing. You never know who will do or say what , and if you think you do, you'll be wrong. What will be surprising to readers of Austen or Burney is the amount of control the female characters have over their own fate. In a Burney novel, for example, events tend to happen to the female characters rather than the character shaping the events. This isn't the case with Love In Excess. The women in this novel are very much active in their own circumstances, whether for good or ill. Love in Excess deserves your attention. In the first half of the eighteenth century the only novel to out sell it was Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, which suggests to me that scholars should give it more attention for its importance in the development of the English novel. Regardless, scholarly reader or escapist will enjoy this book.
Customer Reviews:
Must Read!.......2007-04-19
My first dive into "real" literature and now I'm hooked thanks to this book. Starts a little slowly, but hang on. Once the excitement starts, you can't put it down. Uses lots of coincidences for plot resolution as was common for the time period, but this does not detract from the excellent quality. Much fun to read and well worth your time.
Great 19th century story!.......2006-04-12
This novel, originally written in 1859, begins with Colonel Warfield, "Old Hurricane," being called from his cozy bed into a raging storm to hear the deathbed confession of an old, black slave. It seems that the evil Gabriel Le Noir had killed his brother and taken his pregnant sister-in-law into hiding. This old slave attended the birth of the twins--one stillborn boy, one living girl--and hid the girl and raised her by herself. This girl, Capitola, was now living in New York City and was 13 years old. Old Hurricane fetches the girl and has her live with him as his ward.
Meanwhile, the story of Marah Rocke and her 18 year old son Traverse begins. She's a wholesome, suffering single mother. Traverse is noble and hard-working. They are befriended by Doctor Day and his lovely daughter Clara. Traverse and Clara fall in love, but first, Traverse must establish himself as a doctor and so on. Evil tidings befall, and their love is thwarted. Will it ever work out?
Meanwhile, back at Hurricane Hall, Capitola grows up and is quite a pistol. She's spunky, disobedient, and thoroughly enjoyable to read about. She captures a notorious criminal and escapes from a few of them as well.
But, how do these stories tie together? Who is Col. Warfield's nephew? His estranged wife? How do the evil Le Noirs fit into this story? Will Traverse be shot in the army? Will Clara be force to marry Craven Le Noir? All these tantalizing questions are answered in a clean, entertaining story which leaves you with a happy ending.
If you enjoy adventure with a somewhat predictable outcome, morals entwined in your stories, and don't mind young men who would die for their mothers, then I recommend this book to you. It's not overtly heavy on the morality and sentimentality as some old reprints are. If you're a cynical old jade who doesn't want to spend 400+ pages reading about these folk, then go watch some TV.
Who was Capitola?.......2005-11-20
At my aunt's birth she was given the name, "Capitola." I was always curious as to where that name had originated from and later I was told that my grandmother had taken it from a very popular novel at the time. Like my grandmother I have very much enjoyed reading The Hidden Hand. Capitola, the feisty and subversive heroine of the book puts a lot of playful pressure on the conventional Christian and genteel values that are in the end reaffirmed. I highly recommend this book.
19th Century Literature Rocks.......2005-08-17
I checked this book out of my local library and after reading it just had to have a copy of my own. It's a fantastic example of a 19th century "Popular", what we today call a Gothic-Romance. This is what all the ladies were reading and even though it follows the formula used by writers of the period, it's still an outstanding page-turner. Descriptions, characters and plot are all well developed and it moves along quickly and easily. I'm thrilled to see it available here for others to enjoy! 19th Century Literature really can rock if you let it!
Great!!.......2002-07-29
Capitola is a true heroin! Once you buy this book you'll never be able to put it down. Capitola is a lovable character and Ms. E.D.E.N Southworth, did a marvelous job at selecting each of her characters including Captain Hurricane, Black Donald (the criminal) Capitola is a remarkabl eyoung girl and you'll definately laugh and cry with her through out the book! I recommend this book to all who have read such novels as Pride and Prejudice and Northanger Abbey by Jane Austen! You'll LOVE this book!

Book Description
Haywood's novel is the story of the beautiful Princess Eovaai. Groomed for the throne by her father, who teaches her Lockean notions of liberty, she is overthrown, enmeshed in civil war, and then magically transported to a foreign land by an evil man. Part magician, part politician, he plots to marry her for political reasons. The fascinating reflexive structure of The Adventures of Eovaai incorporates argumentative intrusions (by the Translator, an Historian, etc.), interweaves political and amatory storylines, and blends a wild mix of genres. Chronologically, Eovaai is situated between the amatory novels of Haywood's early career and her later domestic novel, and so manifests Haywood's development as an author, and her awareness and employment of contemporary literary trends.
